So where’s the weird shit on Mastodon? Surrealist humor? Bizarre thought processes? Fish that look like chihuahuas?

The kind of day where the kids have half-day care but work is all day. Yup, happy Halloween, everyone.

Eugen RochkoThe past few days have extracted a heavy toll from me. While it's nice to see your work finally taken seriously in the mainstream, the 12-14 hour workdays I've had to pull to handle everything is anything but...
Luca Hammer ENI wrote a nano tool that tries to extract the #Fediverse accounts of your #Twitter followings: https://fedifinder.glitch.me/
It searches for the patterns @[email protected], [email protected] and host.tld/@user in the screen name, description, location and URL field. It displays them to you in the correct format for easy copying as well as a CSV download that can be imported to #Mastodon.

Hmm, I’m using the iOS app and I don’t seem to be able to share any images. If I attach an image the Publish button becomes grayed out and I can’t tap it. I don’t suppose anyone would know why that’d be? @Mastodon am I doing something wrong?
Aral BalkanDear #TwitterMigration folks, an important tip on #privacy on the fediverse:
There is none.
This is a public medium; please treat it as such. Just as you have no privacy on Twitter (Elon Musk can read all your DMs), you have no privacy on the instance you’re on (your administrators can read all your posts).
You can set the visibility of a post but that’s a viewing suggestion, not a privacy guarantee.
Think of your posts as postcards, not sealed letters, and you should be fine.
#introductions Well, I’ve been on here since I heard an interview with @Gargron on #Griftonomics but haven’t really been active. Seems like a good time to give it a go!
I’m here to hopefully find a community who can help me make sense of what’s happening in the world, maybe teach me something I don’t know, and possibly even give me a laugh every now and then.
Hi, everybody.
